Ever felt like you were staring overr with nothing? In this poetic and puncy episode of What About This? Brandy gets real about dissapointment, disruption, and the slow sacred process of becoming.

When the words vanish and the dye fades- this is about trusting the process when you'd rather just arrive already.

This episode? It's part story time, part soul revival, part sacred rant about shower filters, delayed podcast episodes, and why I only book hotels that serve cheesecake after 9pm.

I lost a whole episode .

Then my shower head exploded.

Then God showed up anyway, with light on the lake, crumbs on a nightstand, and my last name etched on the wallpaper.

We're calling this Helion Season - a golden stretch of days where the miracles look more like Monday afternoons, fireflies, and somone texting "I'm proud of you" a just the right time.

Inside, we chat about:

• The hotel hair saga that turned into holy ground
• Divine detours with Shari + Kristel (podcast guests:)
• Room service theology ( yes cheesecake counts)
• A rhythm list for sacred summer slowness
• And a body blessing for every woman to know she is seen

If you've beenfeeling overwhelmes by life's headlines and timelines this wpisode will meet you right wheere you are. And if you're wondering if your miracle is too quiet to matter...

Spoiler alert: It's not!

Come for the shorts

Stay for the cheesecake

Leave with a little more light than you came with

This is your sign t nottice the holy in the ordinary.
